Flakes!

Following months of rehearsals, third-graders at Islip’s Maud S. Sherwood Elementary School performed two shows of their winter musical “Flakes” for classmates and family members. Written by John Jacobson and John Higgins, the 20-minute musical included five winter-themed songs that showcased to the audience and the littlest “snowflakes” that no two flakes are alike, and that everyone is special in their own way. The kid-friendly musical was directed by choral teacher Maureen Bodin.
